You were the best father a girl could ever ask for. You are missed more than I can ever say. You were always there for me no matter what I needed and you could do anything and when I was living so far away you could instruct me how to fix anything. I can't even go back to Paramus because all the reminders that you are gone are too much for me to bear. I love you so much. It haunts me to this day that I never got to say goodbye to you. I was coming out for a visit in two weeks.

We all miss you so much.

Our Aunt Lena ("Aunt Gingee" as we called her) was the most special person to her nieces. Although she had no children of her own, she had four "daughters" in us. She took us places and always cooked for us when we stopped on by. She always sent us home with her specialty cooked italian foods, roasted peppers and olives. Whenever we needed something, Aunt "Gingee" was always there with support or help. She was so loved by all of us. Her second marriage to Uncle Joe gave her many years of happiness. She enjoyed life to the fullest, overcoming many hardships through the years. She was like a second mother to us. We miss her wit and her stories, as only she could tell them. We also miss her sharp tongue when it was deserved. Although at the end, people tried to keep her real family away from her, we fought the powers to be to bring her home so she could peacefully pass. I know she is happy with the loved ones gone before her. We love you Aunt Lena, your nieces, Donna, Celia, Laurie and Jean.

Do not mourn nor cry for me I'm still here, though you don't see. I'm right by your side each night and day and within your heart I long to stay. My body is gone but I'm always near, I'm everything you feel, see or hear. My spirit is free, but I'll never depart as long as you keep me alive in your heart. I'll never wander out of your sight. I'm the brightest star on a summer night. I'll never be beyond your reach. I'm the warm moist sand when your at the beach. I'm the colorful leaves when fall comes around and the pure white snow that blankets the ground. I'm the beautiful flowers of which you're so fond the clear cool water in a quiet pond. I'm the firt bright blossom you'll see in the spring, the first warm raindrop that April will bring. I'm the ray of light when the sun starts to shine and you'll see that the face in the moon is mine. When you srart thinking there's no one to love you, You can talk to me through the leaves on the trees, and you'll find my presence in the soft summer breeze. I'm the hot salty tears that flow when you weep and the beautiful dreams that come when you sleep. To all of my children thatI hold so dear weep no more, I'll always be here. For all the cherised memories we share just look for me, I'm everywhere.

The death of my father, the greatest man I ever knew. My mentor, my teacher, my hero, my father. Dad, you will always be remembered in our hearts. We love you, forever sharon, maureen, mike, dennis, kathy, and tim

Only son of Ken Dal Busco and Viola Ellen Bray Dal Busco, brother of Jennie Marie Dal Busco. Despite his early demise (25), Kenny (as we knew him) lived a wonderful life full of friends, gaming, video games, comic books, cards, and other collectibles. He is buried at Lima Family Mortuary in Fremont.
I, the sister, miss him very much. He used to put vinegar on his McDonald's so I wouldn't eat his french fries. I used to do horrid things and then blame him (successfully). We used to be wretched to each other at times, yet I will always remember him as my best friend in the whole world when we were little.
He is greatly missed by all.

For my dearest Mark, My first nephew, my parents first grandson...born on my father's own birthday, my eldest brother's first child, bearing two children of his own, the first son, Nelson, born on his father's and grandfather's birthday... such a happy time... and now such a sad time... such a beautiful man... so tall and so strong.. with a special smile that made your heart so warm... your face and charm will live forever with our family and your Aunty... such a sad loss but such a beautiful memory... I will always love you and will always be there for your children... Love always....Deanne

He was one of the most hard-working man I ever knew. He always had a way of making everyone he came in contact with feel special. He was the best dad anyone could ever have. His three daughters meant the world to him, and he meant the world to them too. We love and miss you dad!

My mother was born in Kentucky, she had a hard life, and I
loved her very much. My one great consolation is that her
death was painless, and she did not suffer. I will miss her
for the rest of my days. Kathy Edwards

A man of compassion and kindness. A man of dreams and imagination. A man of love and honour. A man of truth and integrity. A man who will be greatly missed. We love you and always will.

William Daley, age 61 of San Jose, CA is survived by his wife Patricia Daley, three children and five grandchildren. We will miss you very much Daddy, we love you so very much. You are very important in our lives and you taught us very well in every aspect of life so we are now able to handle anything that comes our way thanks to you and Mom.

I am standing upon the seashore. A ship at my side spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and starts for the blue ocean. She is an object of beauty and strength. I stand and watch her until at length she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other.

Then someone at my side says: "There, she is gone!"

"Gone where?"

Gone from my sight. That is all. She is just as large in mast and hull and spar as she was when she left my side and she is just as able to hear the load of living freight to her destined port.

Her diminished size is in me, not in her. And just at the moment when someone at my side says: "There she is gone!" there are other eyes watching her coming, and other voices ready to take up the glad shout: "Here she comes!"

And that is dying.

- Henry Van Dyke

We miss you.

You are not forgotten.

Our lives will never be the same without him,but I know he wants us to move on. His memory will always remain in my heart. That is where I kept him while he was living,and now that he is gone, it is only right to continue that,even though my heart weighs heavy with this loss of a special friend. God Bless You Dee... You were loved,by us all.... Love, Tricia

Even though you have left us, we feel you here every day. I wish you would have known how appreciated you were. Somehow I feel that now you really know all our feelings towards you. You are so loved. Thank you for being such a great father to Kyndle. She talks about you every day and you are included in all our prayers. What a Blessing it was to have had you in our lives. So many people considered you their friend and most of them came to love you like family. We are so devastated that you left so suddenly. I know you are watching over us. I promise to keep you in mind when it comes to making decisions about Kyndle. I know you loved her and did the best you could by her. I will always love you, Jerry. You are "forever" in our hearts...

Acceptance is knowing you are now free of the incredible pain you must have endured. We love you more than you can imagine.

It has almost been 4 years but seems like forever. I miss you more than words can describe. Life is hard without you. You were the bond that held our family together. I want to call you and share things with you and I can't. You were taken away from all of us too soon. The only comfort is knowing you are not in pain any more and that Dad has now come Home to be with you. And that we will all be together again someday soon.

Thank you for being the best mother a daughter could ask for.

Love,

Me

This is to my mother, Imari Valley Dalton.
love always and forever,
your daughter, Virginia Caroline.

To My Dearest Husband, I know that you are in a wonderful place. You have to be as you where always KIND and WONDERFUL. I would have never survived my Cancer, except that you took such exceptional care of me. You were always kind and gentle, helped always your fellow man. I miss you at ALL times.

Damis Price King III entered into heaven on may 13,2002.
He left behind his parents Damis Price King II and Denise Renay King of Westville Illinois. Also an 8 month old sister
Margaret Dawn Eileen King.Two grandmothers Janice Keller of Westville Illinois and Darlene Fish of Tompkinsville Kentucky. Also three aunts Vanessa Godsey of Franklin Indiana and Melinda Griffith of Tompkinsville Kentucky and
April Griffith of Westville Illinois.All of us are going to miss the chance to get to know him and watch him grow and play. To hear him laugh and cry and to see who he looks like
and to watch him when he sleeps.But no matter what we all know we love him and miss him very much.He was taken at 18 weeks gestation. We held his lifeless body and told him goodbye. The only thing we could do was hold him tight and cry.But even though God saw fit to take him away well all be together in heaven one day

This is to give honor to and remember my father. He was loved and hated by people but was always was considered a very honest man. He worked hard for his family and we never went without. He and my mother stayed together until death they did part. He was home at night, ate with his family and always honored my brother and me. I could not have asked for a better father. He taught me to drive, he respected me, cared for me, spent time with me,and never took advantage of me. His life ended early and God only knows the real reason he is now not here. "I wasn't there that morning when my father passed away", the song goes, he was many many miles away and I was only given the opportunity to see his urn where his ashes layed, but he is in my heart and the memories we made throughout the years are always with me. As I age I see more of him in me. I miss you Dad but I know we will see each other and you will once again give me a hug. Peace be with you Dad.

This is in memory of my mother. She fought a mighty battle for the last four years of her life and won with quite a victory though her inter pain was great. She was always ready to help the neighbors, friends and co-workers even though she ached inside with cancer. I consider myself extremely blessed to have been the last person to tell her that I loved her and she returned those words to me. The Lord took her at a young age, by modern times, just turned 60 but I understand why He did. He is getting ready to bring us home and needed the best here to help Him prepare for this day. Anyone that knew my mother loved her. Thank you Lord for allowing me to have my mother and for the very especially last four years of her life here on earth.

Dad, when I was very young I asked you how long you would be around and you replied "Until Hailey's Comet comes back." You kept that promise and more. I cherish the memories of our time together and I am glad that we could be there for you when your time here ended. I miss you and I love you Dad.

My dearest Mom was a friend to all. I miss her every day.

Thanks for all of your energy. You were a great friend. I know that you're acting up there for God right now.

I miss you.

Sorry it took so long to do this. (15 years)

Love Myles

The beautiful male struggled for all the knowledge he could recieve in his mortal life. Let us show his a sign and throw the ashes of truth on his grave.

Eddie is and always willl be a very special person. He was taken away from all of us who loved him without warning. Eddie, you will always be remembered in everything we say and do. I wish I had known something was wrong that day. Maybe I could have done something. You were always there for me and everyone else that needed you....day or night. We could not have asked for a better boss/friend. We LOVE you! Thank you for all that you have given us and for what we will still receive from you.

My mother was the most wonderful person that I can say I've had the pleasure of knowing. She was everything that I hope to be when I leave this world. My sister, Emily, and I love her dearly and will miss her constantly for the rest of our lives. Mom, you will never be forgotten... Larissia

One of your teachers at AFI school was Czech Frantisek Daniel. What do you remember about him?  DAVID LYNCH: I am sorry to say he died not long ago, and I have to tell you that he was my only teacher. He gave much to other people, he helped many people. He was a nobleminded and nonegoistic man, and no one understood the art of film making as he did. He understood it and truly loved it - his criticism was always constructive and never purposely offended anybody. He was open about saying what he didn`t like, but he did it in a way that would help you. And that cannot be said about most of the critics in USA. I am very sorry he is not here.  http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/9843/lynch.htm

My cousin Chris and his girlfriend got wonderfull news that they were to have a child. Both were overcome with excitement, on July 4, 2006 they would announce the news to everyone. (even though everyone already knew it) Chris proposed to Aja and they got marriend in the summer of 2006. Aja was welcomed into the family, just as if she was always there. She gave birth to my cousin Owen Michael Daniel on Febuary 7, 2007. Everyone was so excited, I mean what could go wrong? Then disaster struck, everything started to spiral out of control. Owen had very bad fluid in his lungs and they could not remove it, so it concerned the doctors. So Owen was examined, the worst thing happned, no one ever wanted to hear this, and many didn't believe it, Owen had a rare form of cancer called Neuroblastoma. All of our hearts dropped, no one could help but to sit and cry. Owen had many treatments and transfusions, needles seemed to be everywhere. The first time I saw Owen was April 5, 2007 two days before my birthday when we were at Ft. Knox for Owens uncles, Chris' brother, and my cousin and my best friends graduation from basic training. I didn't want to get close to Owen, I tried my absolute hardest to not get close to Owen. I finally got enough courage to get close to Owen, but his grandma, my aunt shoowed me away claiming I was to young, and dangerous for Owen to be around. I was emberassed so I walked away. Owen left and I was happy I didn't get close to him. Owen got a lot better, a surgery was scheduled for the weekend of June 15, 2007. I saw Owen on the weekend of May 20, 2007 I actually sat on the same couch as Owen, I wanted to get close to him, because he was so much better I mean what was the chances of anything happening, I thought that he would have the surgery and everything would be ok. At least I thought. So Valerie the same person that had earlier shooed me away from Owen let me hold him, I was so nervous, I was scared he was going to throw up on me. I kept handing him to Valerie, and she kept saying it was ok. Something I will NEVER forget was Owen grabbed my hand, as if he was trying to hold it and say everything is going to be ok. I was astonished, no word could describe what I felt. For a second I almost knew he would make it out alive, and I began to think what cousin I was going to be, how when I got older we would be best friends like I am with my older cousins, how I would take him places, and the word cancer would not be in the dictionary. How everything somehow would go away. The thing I dreaded worst was coming true, I loved Owen. I spent the rest of the day with Owen, and if I would have only known it would be the last time I would have ever seen him, I would have held him forever, kissed his head and told him I loved him. I called Chris to tell Aja and Owen I loved them and to take care of Owen. The next day was Owen's surgery. He went to be an angel on the 17th. He was so weak and his body developed an infection from the surgery. He never fully woke up. The night Owen died I knew something was wrong. My mom had gone to the hospital and said Owen wasn't doing good, and might not make it through the night. That night I slept with my mom, and the phone rang, I knew what it was. The night before it was almost if I could talk to Owen, this is what I "told" him, "Hey buddy, I know you don't feel good, hang in there, please, and if you really feel the pull of God go, and I basically "told" Owen that God died for his sins and that he loved him, and he created the world. I feel Owen was there. I even "told" Owen that I loved him, and I could almost hear him "whispering" I love you to, and I will ALWAYS watch over you. My mom didn't tell me that Owen died and made my dad come in my bedroom and tell me on Wednesday. Even though all week I knew, all week I wanted to not believe it. After my dad told me he had to go to the dry cleaners, and I lied to him and said I had to be dropped off at my friends house because I had to give them something (actually I think I really had something to give them) and I just opened their door without knocking, and I told them. My friend was in the shower, and her mom held me and kissed my head, I even went to tell my friend in the shower what happned. The next day there was a memorial service, and I didn't know if I wanted to go, I didn't want to get more upset. But I went. The next day I went to his funeral my cousin Seth got to come home from Ft. Knox. My cousin Landon that is my age held me throughout the service, and then Seth held me. I felt safe and I felt as if Owen was there. In a way I know he was. We all went to Aja and Chris' friends house to hang out and eat. No one eat though. I tried to hug my cousin Chris because he was about to cry, he scolded me because he was in front of his friends and I was emberassing him. I understood though. We all went home. Owen is still here and he will always be here. He is an angel and he is watching over his uncle Seth in South Korea until he gets home in winter 2008. Aja and Chris are getting better. Aja is trying to write a book, and Chris is trying to finnish school at Georgia Tech. A month later my friends aunt passed away and I was there for me just she was there for me. My parents are ok, we are all moving on, the tears are drying up, but it dosen't mean we don't care. Owen taught us all to love, to let go. How short life really is. His smile was the biggest of all babies. He was here for a short time to teach us all a lesson. He will never be forgotten, and he will always be remebered. I love him more than anything, and I miss him everyday. Tonight is about four months since he passed away. I still cry like I did tonight. He is there though and I still feel the way his diaper felt when he sat on my leg, how his hand felt grasped on my finger. And how an angel felt to love, to hold, and to let go. I can proudly say that I dedicated my life to Neuroblastoma research and rehabilitation. My lifes plan is to graduate High School ( I am 14, and am a Freshman) and go to medical school and become a Neuroblastoma research and also a nurse. He taught me more to life than anyone else, and he will never be forgotten. Below are some peoms that I feel when I read them it is almost as if he is saying this to me. Dedicated to Owen Michael Daniel, Febuary 7, 2007 to June 17, 2007. You are never forgotten and always loved. To My Dearest Family:
Some things I'd like to say
but first of all to let you know
that I arrived okay
I'm writing this from Heaven
where I dwell with God above
where there's no more tears
or sadness there
is just eternal love
Please do not be unhappy
just because I'm out of sight
remember that I'm with you
every morning, noon and night
That day I had to leave you
when my life on Earth was through
God picked me up and hugged me
and He said I welcome you
It's good to have you back again
you were missed while you were gone
as for your dearest family
they'll be here later on
I need you here so badly
as part of My big plan
there's so much that we have to do
to help our mortal man
Then God gave me a list of things
He wished for me to do
and foremost on that list of mine
is to watch and care for you
And I will be beside you
every day and week and year
and when you're sad
I'm standing there
to wipe away the tear
And when you lie in bed at night
the days chores put to flight
God and I are closest to you
in the middle of the night
When you think of my life on Earth
and all those loving years
because you're only human
they are bound to bring you tears
But do not be afraid to cry
it does relieve the pain
remember there would be no flowers
unless there was some rain
I wish that I could tell you
of all that God has planned
but if I were to tell you
you wouldn't understand
But one thing is for certain
though my life on Earth is o're
I am closer to you now
than I ever was before
And to my very many friends
trust God knows what is best
I'm still not far away from you
I'm just beyond the crest
There are rocky roads ahead of you
and many hills to climb
but together we can do it
taking one day at a time
It was always my philosophy
and I'd like it for you too
that as you give unto the World
so the World will give to you
If you can help somebody
who is in sorrow or in pain
then you can say to God at night
my day was not in vain
And now I am contented
that my life it was worthwhile
knowing as I passed along the way
I made somebody smile
So if you meet somebody
who is down and feeling low
just lend a hand to pick him up
as on your way you go
When you are walking
down the street
and you've got me on your mind
I'm walking in your footsteps
only half a step behind
And when you feel the gentle breeze
or the wind upon your face
that's me giving you a great big hug
or just a soft embrace
And when it's time for you to go
from that body to be free
remember you're not going
you are coming here to me
And I will always love you
from that land way up above
Will be in touch again soon
P.S. God sends His Love
--Author Unknown

To Those I Love
If I should ever leave you whom I love
To go along the Silent Way, grieve not,
Nor speak of me with tears, but laugh and talk
Of me as if I were beside you there.
(I'd come-I'd come, could I but find a way!
But would not tears and grief be barriers?)
And when you hear a song or see a bird
I loved, please do not let the thought of me
Be sad .... For I am loving you just as
I always have ... You were so good, to me!
There are so many things I wanted still
To do --- so many things to say to you ...
Remember that I did not fear ... It was
Just leaving you that was so hard to face ...
We cannot see Beyond.. But this I know:
I loved you so - 'twas heaven here with you!

If I Knew

If I knew it would be the last time

That I'd see you fall asleep,

I would tuck you in more tightly

and pray the Lord, your soul to keep.

If I knew it would be the last time

that I see you walk out the door,

I would give you a hug and kiss

and call you back for one more.

If I knew it would be the last time

I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise,

I would video tape each action and word,

so I could play them back day after day.

If I knew it would be the last time,

I could spare an extra minute to stop and say "I love you,"

instead of assuming you would KNOW I do.

If I knew it would be the last time

I would be there to share your day,

well I'm sure you'll have so many more,

so I can let just this one slip away.

For surely there's always tomorrow

to make up for an oversight,

and we always get a second chance

to make everything just right.

There will always be another day to say "I love you,"

And certainly there's another chance to say our "Anything I can do?"

But just in case I might be wrong, and today is all I get,

I'd like to say how much I love you and I hope we never forget.

Tomorrow is not promised to anyone, young or old alike,

And today may be the last chance

you get to hold your loved one tight.

So if you're waiting for tomorrow, why not do it today?

For if tomorrow never comes, you'll surely regret the day,

That you didn't take that extra time for a smile, a hug, or a kiss

and you were too busy to grant someone, what turned out to be their one last wish.

So hold your loved ones close today, and whisper in their ear,

Tell them how much you love them and that you'll always hold them dear

Take time to say "I'm sorry," "Please forgive me," "Thank you," or "It's okay."

And if tomorrow never comes, you'll have no regrets about today.

You would have loved this internet stuff, Daddykins, so I thought your name should be out here. I miss you and think of you every day. Thank you for the strength, love and courage that you have given me. You are close to my heart, always.

My mom was a very special woman. To me, she was the strongest person I knew. She still is. My mom was always there when you needed her. If you were down, she would brighten your day. My mom had this personality you couldn't hate. The people she befriended immediately grew fond of her. My mom always had a smile on her face. She was warm and caring. A beautiful person inside and out, who never wanted to worry anyone. (Lydia Dano - daughter)

Lyvinia was a warm and hard working person. She was loved by every one who knew her. She was always there to help. She never turned down anyone who needed her assistance. She believed that the best legacy she can leave her children was a good education. No one can replace the space she left in our hearts. And we will do our best to continue where she left. (Art Faelnar - brother)

In Loving memory of Meredeth Anabel Briggs-Dante from her Husband Carl of 46 years, and children:
Maggie Elizabeth
Paul David
Julie Marie
Edward James
Daniel Mark
Susan Michelle
And her 5 Grandchildren

.....Whe we close our eyes, we still can see your smile. Its bright enough to light our lives out of our darkest hours.
Know now this is true, when we tell you we love you......

Loving Husband and Father. No one could have ever asked for a better Father. He will always be remebered for his sense of humor. I love you Dad, your the best!!! Miss you........

She was a fine, strong-hearted, intelligent woman who swore like a sailor and smoke d like a chimney. Everyone she came in contact with was touched by her spirit. Although she seldom gave you what you wanted, you always got what you needed. She is still sorely missed by kin and community. May God keep her spirit well.

Pappy,

You and Mom taught my brother and I through word and deed. I never Thanked You for caring as you surely did. Your values have been passed down to us and I will try my best to use them as if you were still here parenting. Of all of life's trials and tribulations, grieving is one thing you could never teach. In all honesty, I am having a difficult time of it. I keep telling myself that you are watching from above and this will always keep me on the straight and narrow. I Love You...Pappy

But we'll be together again one day.

Goodnight & Godbless, Love Mummy xxxx

Dad, It has been 8 years since you passed, and I still cry at the thought of that day. We all miss you very much. My only comfort is that I know that you are no loner in any pain, with no stress. I know you are with the Lord. Love, Tammy

My husband, Darrell Lynn Petrosky, was my heart and soul! My best friend, my lover, my "everything". He was so happy all the time!! Allways smiling, allways upbeat, allways positive. Never, ever, had a negative or cruel thing to say about anyone. Found the best only in everything and everyone. I hope I have learned from him and do his memory proud by being as he was. He was the best father to our 3 children who miss him daily. He lived a hard life but never complained, a true survivor. I will miss him forever and long for his smiling face! I miss everything about him but especially his soft lips!!

To a beloved husband, father, son and brother, may you rest in peace with God and all of the angels in heaven.

Heaven is a more beautiful place now you are there.......

Will be so sadly missed

Ethan

Paul died unexpectedly of pneumonia at age 22. He was my only child and I adored him. The most important thing I can say about Paul is that he was the most compassionate person I've ever known. Rest in peace and rise in glory, Paul. I'll see you then. Ever loved and deeply mourned by his Mother.

A true friend who is always in my thoughts and who helped make me the person I am today. He brought laughter and joy to all he came in contact with. He is sorely missed by myself and his two sisters, Patricia and Martha.

Quinnie-pooh, we miss you so very much. We feel you are in a better place and are happy. It is us who are left to shoulder the burden of grief. You were a wonderful daughter, sister, and friend. That was made quite evident at the funeral service. Unfortunately, that was the last gift we were able to give to you. Hope you liked it. It was you---with the dance music from the recital, all your personal items, and your good friends speaking about you. We miss your bright smile, your big blue eyes, your creativity, and your love for jokes that always caught us off guard. As dad said, "She was just beginning to fly." I wish you would have had a chance to experience life a little longer. You were so happy and lived life to the fullest (which is what everyone should do). What did you know that we didn't know? I know you were a precious gift from God, on loan as it were. We wanted a long term loan, not a short term loan. Quinn, watch over us---you are our guardian angel now. We love you and miss you! Always, Dad, Mom, and Zann

Jimmy, You were a special part of my life, you made me so happy - you were my love for 27 years, you were my best friend. You were my soul mate.You may have left this world, but you will never leave my heart. I will love you forever and I will hold on to our memories. Love, Lee

To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.-Ralph Waldo Emerson. You were a success mom! I love you and I miss you very much. Your daughter, Lisa Myers

Mike had just obtained a post as lecturer in psychology at University of East London when he was killed in a road accident. Mike was great fun - he would appreciate being remembered in this memorial garden. I miss you Mike, love you, as always, Christine.

To my dear sweet husband, I know you are at peace in heaven. Oh, how I and your girls miss you so much, watch over us, keep us safe till we meet again. Love You, Mary

Ethan had an infectious smile, and touched the lives of those he met through his short life. Sadly, he never believed this about himself, and he turned to drugs to temporarily boost his low self-esteem. It was the death of him, shot in my kitchen by a bounty hunter who claimed to be his friend and wanted to help him. I guess that's what happens when you trust a bounty hunter who does drugs too.
But the bounty hunter's life went on. Ethan's did too, for 21 more days as he layed suffering in ICU, making his peace with God, hopefully forgiving me, and remembering how happy we both were before the cocaine monster took over. There we were, well into our thirties, feeling like teenagers, in love for the first time. He restored a feeling I had forgotten all about, and created some I'd never had. I loved him so much, and I miss him just as much. It has given me a new outlook on my own death, I will not be afraid when that time comes, because I will get to be with my Angel again, and this time no one can take him away. This month would have been our 2 yr anniversary. I love you Ethan.

There is never a day that passes that I don't think about you..... I can't beleive what happened, I loved you to the end, I'll always love you Leslie, My brother, my best friend. Forever in my thoughts. Joyce

Dad

I hardly know what to say because you were always so reticent and I found it difficult to talk to you, it was always sous entendu. I always admired your tenacity, I've tried to copy it. I admire the way you stuck by Mum for 60-odd years and took care of her for the last 20. You always kept your sense of humour (which I hope I've inherited). There was so much we had to say to each other and never did, now we'll have to do it at a later date. The fact that you went only four days after Mum showed your devotion and will to see that she was OK. I'll miss you forever and you will always be with me.
Love
Your "rotten daughter"
Pat

Remembered fondly by so very many friends.

Mum, I couldn't be there for your funeral but I have it on the best authority that you really would have enjoyed it it was a really good "turn out" as you would have said. I can't say too much more at this point because there would be so much to say. I remember what I remember and if I remember rightly it wasn't what you remembered - but then memory is a strange thing. I left you a long time ago but you were always in my thoughts. Rest peacefully Mum - all the hardships are over finally love Pat

My Dad was, and still is, the person I hold the most respect for. He left me aged 42, which I feel is way too young for such an energetic person. I love him more and more every day and I just wish I could see him again.

Friday night I'm going nowhere
All the lights are changing green to red,
Turning over TV stations
Situations running through my head,
Well looking back through time
You know it's clear that I've been blind
I've been a fool,
To ever open up my heart
To all that jealousy, that bitterness, that ridicule.

Saturday I'm running wild
And all the lights are changing red to green,
Moving through the crowd I'm pushing
Chemicals all rushing through my bloodstream,
Only wish that you were here
You know I'm seeing it so clear
I've been afraid,
To tell you how I really feel
Admit to some of those bad mistakes I've made.

Sunday all the lights of London
Shining , Sky is fading red to blue,
I'm kicking through the Autumn leaves
And wondering where it is you might be going to,
Turning back for home
You know I'm feeling so alone
I can't believe,
Climbing on the stair
I turn around to see you smiling there
In front of me.

If you want it
Come and get it
Crying out loud
The love that I was
Giving you was
Never in doubt
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now

Babylon, Babylon

You never would have believed it

I'm sure her seatbelt is fastened somewhere between heaven and hell...Shesh ould have won BEST ACTRESS more times than she did...There will never be another like her...The power of film will keep Bette alive!!!

The Loss of An Angel
By Michael Rodgers
(9/19/97)

Today my heart is sad,
That's ok to say,
Today we've lost an angel,
His name was C. K.

He walked with grace among us,
Always head held high,
No matter what your station was,
His passing made you cry.

For he was not a royal one,
And not above us all,
He was just an angel,
Who could stumble, slip, and fall.

He made his mark in many ways,
His gifts to us were great,
It makes us know that love is now,
And reminds us of our fate.

So to C. K.. I tilt my head,
As tears roll down my cheek,
For an angel we have lost today,
It is of C. K. Davis I speak.

Too my beautiful baby girl, mommy and daddy miss you very much. Although we only got to see you for an hour, we knew you before you were born, and loved you.

Davis was a good man. He died in bed making love to His beautiful wife Kathy. He will be missed

My little brother, you are missed so much. At least you now have your sister Vickie and both of her children, Brian, who you knew, and Ashley, who was born 9 years after you left us. You are all constantly in my thoughts and the family will always miss and love you.
Your sister,
Connie

A loving mother and grandmother. Husband of Orson. She led a wonderful life She got to do all the things in life she wanted: she raised a family, she traveled and she saw hope in the next generation. We love you and miss you.

Angel of God, my guardian dear
To whom his love commits me here,
Ever this day be at my side,
To light and guard,
To rule and guide.

Born in, Pulaski, IL died in Irving, TX. Survived by his wife Coleta M. Davis, sons Darrell and Jerry, daughter Nancy, a sister Stella Hogendobler. Fred was a hunter and gun smith, served in WWII and Korean, retired from Texas Instrument in 1984.

Jeff was a talented, artistic man. He built beautiful model airplanes, rebuilt real aircraft, enjoyed camping, playing his drums, photography, & cross country skiing many years ago. He was also the Father of my 2 sons. Jeff suffered from heart disease for many years, and was suddenly taken from us this summer. Our disabled son is lost without his Dad. Jeff was an important part of our lives. He was there when his son needed him. We miss him very much! I don't think that he ever realized how very much he would be missed by us. We just assumed he would always be here. We know that his spirit is with us, and one day we will all be together again. We love and miss you, Jeff.

How can I simplify your life here when you were as complex as the universe. Your children Lynne Davis Michelle Denovan Lorae Davis Joel Davis and your last child Lucas Davis (deceased also )could never hope to understand you yet they all desperately wanted your acceptance and love. Your legacy is what we all are. Inquiring, searching, yet intelligent and thoughtful and wise. I am happy thaqt you died knowing that I loved you as I told you that in the hospital before stomach cancer took you. I will never forget you.

Lisa Davis was a wonderful person. A gifted photographer, she was deeply committed to several social causes, including women's and gay rights, preservation of the environment, and prevention of cruelty to animals. I still think about her often, and wonder what led her to kill herself. Could any of her friends have prevented it, had they known the trouble she was in? We wish we'd had the chance.

He is my son,brother,grandson,greatgrandson,nephew,and cousin to a loving family.He died from PBS(Prune Belly Syndrome)and Chronic Respiratory Disease in Loma Linda Children's Hospital.He was two years old.We miss you and love you so much.Mark is remember by smiles,laughter,and fighter in heart.When we see him,I see an angel looking at us from above.

Myra "Micky" Davis was a grandmother, mother, wife, sister and friend when she shocked her close circle of friends and family with her unexpected death a year and a half ago. My dear Grandma Mickey was my biggest fan and strongest supporter. She was there for me in a way I will never forget -- in a way that will affect my life and the decisions I make forever. The pain left by her death is still unhealed and unsetteled. But the legacy left behind touches me and everyone close to her daily. Grandma Mickey's unyielding devotion to her family will always remain unmatched in my eyes. I can only hope I give to my family half of what she gave to hers. Her love and support lingers with us all. We will never fully know nor understand why her life was taken with no warning or preparation . . . all we can do is savor her memory and make sure it lives on in our hearts and souls.

While rock climbing on Mt. Dana in Mono County, California, Nick Davis slipped on a patch of ice and fell 70 feet to his death. He was a loving husband and father of Kaitlyn (4) & Eric (2). He was a devoted police officer and he loved the outdoors. Nick, mom and dad are dying a little each day without you. Susan and the kids are hurting so much and so am I. We love you and we will never forget you. My brother, my protector, a part of me died with you and I feel very alone. You will always be in my heart.

Dearest Tom, "The shallow drowned lose less than we as we shall be together." and I wish I had kissed you goodbye, despite that strangest twist upon your lips. I will always love you, for I had always loved you. Your vitality, so irrespressible, is such that I yearn for the day that we see each other again and we can re-unite that spirit. Your absence has taught me the futility of my pride. Not a day goes by that I don't regret the fact that we let fear obstruct the truth. I am so sorry that I never let you know just how profoundly you were loved. It seems our two greatest loves were music and each other, and you will always be with me wherever I am that I relish in sounds that I know you too would have appreciated. It has always been a distant yet secret code that extends beyond the boundaries of our friendship. So many regrets but blessed to have been touched by you in so many ways and to have your family in my life. My legacy is to promise to care for Christian and Maggie until the time comes that we are all back together again. I had never imagined how much I could miss you. "however far away, i will always love you." sarah heald.

Remembering you as it nears your birthday, I love and miss you very, very much MOM!!! I know you are with the two people you missed more than enyhting in the world, Elaine and Dad!! And I know I should be happy for you but I am selfish and wish you were still here with me and my dumb brothers!!!

I love you more than words can say, your loving and heartbroken daughter Kim

This is in memory of one Hell of a Mom!!! She was the best and will never be forgotten. I love and miss her terribly but I know she is where she wanted to be....with my sister, Elaine Susan Davis-Curry and my dad, Gerald Davis!!! So I know the three of them are together again and are finally happy!! I love you all and miss you loads EVERY day!!! Kim

In loving memory of my dear departed father. May he rest in the loving arms of God

Steven came into my life very unexpectedly. Long before I came out of the closet, Steven taught me that there is nothing wrong with being gay & being proud. He was a marvelous musician -- a pianist who played masterfully. I will always be thankful that I was able to sing at his parents 25th wedding celebration while he played. Steven died of AIDS. He died, as I understand, surrounded by his family of friends. I hope you are having a wonderful, musical afterlife!

Jeffrey today would be your 13th birthday.I want you to know how much I love you. At two years old you went to be with Jesus. I miss you. Jesus needed you to be with him.He knew you were a very special little boy. I think about you everyday.I remember your laugh,touch,and your free spirit. You knew you were leaving us you told us in your favorite song" Give Me Wings ". I have A empty space in my heart . I know you watch over us . Jeffrey you are so loved and missed. but you have grandma and great grandma and great grandpa with you to keep you from being alone.Son I will always love you. Mom.

Jeffrey, You would be a teenager as of your birthday, January 15th. I remember how beautiful you were as a robust 2 year old, before you were taken home to be with Jesus. You were so handsome with your blonde hair and stocky build. There's not a day that goes by that we don't think of you or talk about you. We really miss you and are holding on to the promise of seeing you again on the other side. You are sadly missed by Mommy, Traci, Donnie, Aunt Theresa, Buddy, Justin,(Uncle Bernie wishes he could have known you)

You are loved and missed by so many people, but we all you know are in a better place now. God needed you now, your time here with us must go but we all have such wonderful memories of you. You werent with us for long but in that short time you were, you accomplished so much and made everyone so proud of you and touched so many lives. Thank you for all youve done and I will see you again one day.
I love you! Rest in Peace

This is in memory of my sister! She would do anything to help anyone if she could and she was the best sister anyone could ever wish for. She will be missed more than anyone will ever know. Anyone who knew Elaine was blessed. Please say a prayer for her soul, so that she may rest in peace.

My Darling Allison
You have been gone for seven years, I miss you so very much. I want to hear you call me daddy one more time. Somehow I was not there for you. You died before I could come to you. I love you. I have not done a good job of living without you but I am getting better now. I forgive you for taking your life.
I still hear your voice saying I love you dad.
Goodbye Honey
I love you
Dad

To A Dear Uncle You were taken away so cruelly that we all said that doesn't happen to people we know. It came as a great shock. You are forever in a lot of peoples hearts and although we will go on with you in our hearts we can't help but cry every time we hear the Titanic song. You drowned off the coast of Bali unexpectedly whilst on holiday. We know you were happy when you died and that helps Auntie Irene carry on the way she is doing. I Love You Uncle Donald. All My Love From Sophie
